Poll Question:
Either negatively or positively, what NHL team has surprised you the most so far this season and why?

Dallas easily there usually so consistent on making the playoff every year. This year has been one excuss after another. |

The Boston Bruins. They don't have the big names San Jose has yet they are ripping it up thanks to Kessel, Thomas, and Savard among others. |

Didn't think they had the horses up front to score and thought their goaltending was good, but not good enough to carry though for a season. DM Vancouver |

Half those teams aren't suprising anyone. The Leafs were supposed to suck, the Sens have been spiraling downward for a year now, the Sharks are LOADED since they picked up boyle and Blake, etc...
The biggest suprises I think have been the Bruins, I barely expected them to be in the playoff hunt, and the Stars, didn't expect them to melt down.
Oh yeah, I expected a little more from T-Bay just based on Lecavalier and St. Louis's combined awesomeness alone. |

I think it is the Tampa Bay lightning because they made many off-season moves to get malone, roberts and other players, but they still came out dead. |

The Tampa Bay Lightning. It's suprising that a franchise can become so much of a joke in such a short period of time. |

I am pleasantly surprised on how well the young kids have come together so quickly and the coaching change no doubt is playing a huge role. |

Hmmm and here I was thinking hockey was a team sport. Oh wait, it is. And that is why Atlanta can't win! Because other than Kovalchuk and Little, their team sucks!
Tha Sharks are loaded but I for one didn't expect them to be THIS good! Especially when Nabakov got hurt for 7 games or whatever!
